Joe Clarke challenges Czech paddler Jiřà Prskavec
Olympic champion Joe Clarke laid down the gauntlet to his gold medal successor Jiřà Prskavec, insisting he is back to full fitness and ready to knock the Czech paddler off his perch. The Stafford & Stone star picked up K1 gold at Rio 2016 but did not defend his title before suffering a shoulder injury in 2019 and a wrist injury at the start of January. Ad/> In Clarke's absence, Prskavec has reigned supreme, winning Olympic and European gold.
